From King To Gotham: Jack Gleeson's Secret 'Batman Begins' Role!
Could the face of one of televisions most reviled villains have once graced the screen as an innocent child in Gotham City? Indeed, long before Jack Gleeson masterfully embodied the loathsome King Joffrey Baratheon in HBOs "Game of Thrones," he took on a far less villainous, albeit small, role in Christopher Nolan's "Batman Begins."
In 2005, Gleeson, then a young aspiring actor, appeared in "Batman Begins," Nolans groundbreaking take on the DC Comics superhero. While the film became a box office phenomenon, launching a new wave of darker, more grounded superhero movies, Gleesons contribution remained a subtle footnote for many years. He portrayed a vulnerable child living in the impoverished Narrows district of Gotham, a far cry from the opulent, power-hungry world of Westeros that would later define his career.
